From the desk of Mindles H. Dreck:Nationalize Microsoft
I can't use other people's computers anymore, and I can't fix my recurring PC failures.
It is time for the government to step in. I call for immediate takeover of Microsoft by the federal government. I believe this could resolve both the impending social security crisis and my XP installation.
A company this powerful cannot continue to exist in private hands. There is a growing cry for bigger government in these post 9.11 days. I hear it every time I get together with my closest friends. We need to legislate standards for operability and stability of software so that I can spend more time blogging and less time re-formatting.
It is also time to take action against the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy (VRWO). An organization that can victimize Paul Krugman can only be a few steps from your door. No one is safe.
Folks, it's the only way. Just ask Bjorn Staerk.

Remember, you do have a choice. Get a Mac.
Note the date. Thanks for coming. IF you come again you will realize I don't think anything should be nationalized but defense. I tend towards the "Night Watchman" view.
btw, I also have a mac, and don't find it superior.
yeah ,get a Mac ,which will not run AutoCad ,is used by very few people and then spend your free
time trying to communicate with PC's.
